Cabo de rede Helos S/FTP (PIMF) CAT 6a 5 m

The Helos S/FTP (PIMF) CAT 6a networking cable, length 5 m, provides a shielded copper connection designed for high-speed Ethernet links up to 10,000 Mbit/s. The cable uses S/FTP (overall braid with individually shielded pairs) construction to reduce electromagnetic interference and crosstalk. Both ends are terminated with standard RJ-45 connectors, making it compatible with switches, routers, network cards and patch panels that support 10GBase-T and other Ethernet standards within the CAT 6a specification. The cable's blue outer jacket identifies it in structured cabling installations and is suitable for desktop, rack and wall-mounted equipment connections.

Advantages

The S/FTP (PIMF) shielding provides enhanced protection against external noise and pair-to-pair interference, improving signal stability in busy electromagnetic environments. Cat 6a performance supports 10GBase-T data rates over appropriate channel lengths and maintains consistent throughput for demanding network applications. The pre-terminated RJ-45 connectors enable plug-and-play installation without additional termination tools, while the 5 m length offers flexibility for most office and home set-ups. The cable's construction balances durability and flexibility for routing through cable management paths.

Suitable for

• Connecting computers, servers and switches within office racks and workstations
• High-speed home network backbones and media streaming
• Patch panel to switch or switch-to-switch short links in wiring closets
• Environments with significant electromagnetic interference where shielded cable is required

Key specifications

• Cable category: CAT 6a
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall braid + individually shielded pairs)
• Maximum supported data rate: up to 10,000 Mbit/s (10 Gbps)
• Connector type: RJ-45 to RJ-45
• Standard supported: 10GBase-T

How to use

Route the cable between network devices ensuring gentle bends and avoiding sharp kinks; maintain separation from high-voltage power lines where possible to minimize interference. Insert the RJ-45 connectors into the corresponding ports on your devices until the latch clicks. For optimal 10GBase-T performance, ensure connected devices and intermediate patching hardware support CAT 6a and 10GBase-T standards. Test the link with network diagnostic tools or a cable tester to verify continuity and proper pair termination after installation.

Recommendations

For reliable 10 Gbps performance, keep total channel length within recommended limits, avoid excessive bending radii, and use shielded patch panels and properly grounded racks in installations requiring S/FTP shielding.
